General Notes: Husband - Col. Hugh White
He resided near Chatham's Run, Lycoming County, Pennsylvania.
He served in the American revolution.
From him are descended the Whites of Williamsport and Wellsboro', Pennsylvania.
After the Revolutionary War he resided a mile below the mouth of Chatham Run. He was a captain in Col. Hunter's battalion, the First Battalion of Associates, commissioned April 19, 1776, before he moved up the river. He was one of the first elders in the Pine Creek congregation. He was six feet high, straight as an arrow, and dignified in his deportment. He rode to church in his gig, a carriage of two wheels very fashionable in those days. He reared a large and highly respectable family. The sons were fond of running their horses, and one was killed in the race: he struck against a tree. Col. White was injured by being thrown from a horse, and died, aged eighty-two years.
